This is another simple concept that will be very effective if you can pull it off. I think this will be a great resource to the town the people could watch in years to come. It seems like you have chosen a range of participants for inclusion in this film. As I don't know these people feel like I don't really understand what it is that they are going to contribute to the film.
Are you planning on asking the same questions to every participant? What happens if they all give you the same answers? Think about what you hope to get from each of them and include this in your script.
